what is palindrome?

Answer 1

A word, phrase, verse, or sentence that reads the same backward or forward. For example: A man, a plan, a canal, Panama!
or
A segment of double-stranded DNA in which the nucleotide sequence of one strand reads in reverse order to that of the complementary strand.

Answer 2

palindrome is a word, phrase, number or other sequence of units that has the property of reading the same in either direction (the adjustment of punctuation and spaces between words is generally permitted). The word "palindrome" was coined from Greek roots Greek πάλιν (palin) "back" and δρóμος (dromos) "way, direction" by English writer Ben Jonson in the 1600s. Composing literature in palindromes is an example of constrained writing.
Three famous English palindromes are: "Able was I ere I saw Elba," honoring the first exile of Napoleon; "A man, a plan, a canal: Panama," (by Leigh Mercer, commemorating Theodore Roosevelt or Ferdinand Lesseps), and "Madam, in Eden I'm Adam," (a reference to the creation story in the Bible). (This last example is still palindromic if "in Eden" is omitted. The response would be a one-word palindrome, "Eve.")

Answer 3

A palindrome is a word that when said backwards, is the same as when said forwards. some classic ones are:

racecar
Madam I'm Adam
Otto
Hannah

These words are palindromes because they are spelled the same both forwards and backwards.

Answer 4

Palindrome is a number or a word that when revered is the same the old number or word
e.g
Original Number = 12321
Revered = 12321

Original Word : Malayalam
Revered : Malayalam

Answer 5

A palindrome is a word, phrase, number or other sequence of units that reads the same in either direction.

Answer 6

A word or sentence that reads the same backwards and forwards.

Example:

A man, a plan, a canal, Panama.
Able was I ere I saw Elba. (Napoleon's downfall)

And if you buy some bottled water for $2.00 by the name of Evian, remember it's a palindrome for Naive.

Which brings us to the word "pop" - it is an onomatopoetic monosyllabic palindrome.

Answer 7

–noun 1. a word, line, verse, number, sentence, etc., reading the same backward as forward, as Madam, I'm Adam or Poor Dan is in a droop.
2. Biochemistry. a region of DNA in which the sequence of nucleotides is identical with an inverted sequence in the complementary strand: GAATTC is a palindrome of CTTAAG.

Amazing what you can do with 'cut and copy & paste isn't it ?

What's you next question going to be - how do I use a dictionary?
